We didn’t waste any time getting back to operation cleanup!!

Plenty of snow fell over night. Up past my knee when out in the open, so that’s about 45-50 cm. Took some video of snow clearing. The snow wasn’t difficult to push but underneath is a lot of ice. Just like last year.

The internet wireless tower is downstream of him so it has power, which allows us to finally get back online with the help of generator but can’t do anything else.
